GAME SETUP – REDIRECT

“JTV looks awesome! I can’t wait to be here in two weeks, meet Jay, and find out what JTV is! I know it’s going to be so much fun!

Speaking of fun, today’s game is called ‘Redirect’ and it’s a game that is going to test your teams’ ability to work together and knock this bean bag into the bucket a few feet away. Here’s how this game works…

Each Game Group will send one member to stay in front of their Group behind a bucket. Then, the Game will form a line and toss bean bags towards the person behind the bucket. The kid behind the bucket will then, using two hands, try to slap the bean bag down and get it inside of the bucket. For every bean bag that
makes it inside the bucket, your team will earn a point. Each person in line will step up, toss their bean bag, then move to the back of the line while the kid up front works to redirect the bean bags inside of the bucket. Pretty simple!

Form your Game Groups and after you do that, we’ll set up the buckets and pass out the bean bags. Form your Game Groups now!

(wait for kids to form Game Groups)

Now that you’ve got your game groups, send one kid up to be the one who redirects the bean bags into the bucket and then we’ll begin laying ‘Redirect!’”
